Abstract

The greatest diversity of tomato is found in wild tomato species that show variability in fruit quality characteristics such as fl avor, aroma, color and texture. Twenty-seven introductions of cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum Linnaeus) from UNAPAL's germplasm collection were characterized at Montelindo farm owned by Universidad de Caldas, located in the village municipality of Santágueda, Palestina, Caldas, with an 22.8 °C average temperature, 1.010 m height, 2.200 mm annual precipitation, 76% relative humidity, and volcanic ash and sandy loam soils. Morphological characterization of the introductions was carried out based on tomato descriptors from International Bioversity (formerly IPGRI). An experimental design of randomized complete blocks with 27 treatments, three blocks and seven plants/block as an experimental unit, sown at 1.5 m x 0.5 m (13,333 plants /ha) was used. Four of the nine qualitative and four of the six quantitative variables evaluated showed significant differences. In exterior color of ripe fruit and hypocotyl color, intermediate intensity at 65,38 and 60,85% of the introductions was present, respectively. Introduction 157, stood out with the highest values in the length and width of fruit with 5,03 and 7,00 cm. This one, along with introduction 1.622, showed the greatest length and width of the primary leaf with 4,19 cm-4,02 cm and 0,69 cm-0,72 cm, respectively. The study shows great phenotypic diversity in the introductions characterized which can be useful for genetic improvement of the cultivated species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) has been one of the most successful research-for-development organizations over the past 40 years. The $11 billion invested by CGIAR donor members in research conducted by the international Centers under its umbrella has yielded many multiples of that sum in economic benefits to developing and emerging countries. Annual economic benefits of research on rice in Asia alone are equivalent to the total investment made by CGIAR donors over 4 decades, leaving aside benefits in other continents and from other research conducted by CGIAR institutions. The CGIAR‘s success is due in part to the way it was organized. The Group itself was an informal forum for dialogue among donor members about research priorities, investment options, and the continuing relevance and effectiveness of the institutions supported. The international centers constituted the core of the CGIAR. Each was (and still is) an autonomous international organization governed by an international board. The Group and the Centers were originally advised by the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) of distinguished scientists from developing and developed countries, each appointed as an individual. The Group’s activities were facilitated by its Secretariat based at the World Bank in Washington, DC, and TAC’s activities by another secretariat based at the food and agriculture organization in Rome.
